“Our initial aim is for Energi Tokens to be adopted as a common currency for all EV charging points in the UK. Our intention is then to work with our network of partners to roll this out internationally.”

Energi Mine was named as one of the world’s most exciting blockchain start-ups at this year’s Initial Coin Offering (ICO) Summit in Zurich, where Omar Rahim launched the company’s new digital token, ETK.

The company is currently preparing to raise funds through a token sale, the new way for companies to raise money through cryptocurrency.
